Consumer Watchdog's Executive Director Carmen Balber explains the necessity of different forms of insurance and what questions to ask when considering coverage.  

Drivers are experiencing the 'Golden State Gouge' as gas prices soar in California. Consumer Watchdog explains that a small number of refiners control the supply of the whole state and use their ability to manipulate prices to up profits at the expense of Californians.

An audit by Consumer Watchdog shows stores that are supposed to take back recyclable bottles and provide a redemption are not doing so. These stores are impeding consumer access and denying their right to this redemption program.

Consumer Watchdog report shows 66% of grocery stores surveyed refused to recycle. Stores listed by CalRecycle as required to accept bottles and provide bottle deposits refused to do so even when clearly posted signs said they accept recyclables.

Consumer Watchdog President Jamie Court says consumers are being gouged at the pump by big brand gas companies who manipulated prices.

Consumer Watchdog and civil rights groups call on the California Insurance Commissioner to end occupational price discrimination in auto insurance policies.
